Chapter 258: Moving
Zhou Xingqi got out of the carriage, he took off his hat, looked up and said to Shen Yu: "Mrs. Sheng, long time no see." ”
The eldest lady of the Sheng family died of illness, and the two rooms were separated, and Shen Yu had long been a well-deserved Mrs. Sheng.
"It's you......" Shen Yu's footsteps paused.
Zhou Xingqi is a person, Shen Yu always feels that this person gives her a little uncertain.
Just like before, at the tea party in Tongcheng, he forced Shen Yu to dance with his front foot to make her ugly; When the time came for the flood, he was again in the same ranks with him, and he was in the same hatred.
This person seems to be an enemy and a friend, which is incomprehensible.
It must not be a coincidence that he bought the Sheng family's old mansion, right?
Shen Yu looked at this person seriously for the first time, he was as tall as Sheng Yanqing, but he didn't have many expressions on his face, he was born with a cold face, and the aura around him was also very cold.
Suspicious and worried, she only hovered in Shen Yu's mind for a while, she quickly came back to her senses and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the first business with Young Master Zhou was actually to buy and sell my family's ancestral house, and the business has done its part, it's really ashamed to say it." ”
She smiled like a flower, smiled like a sunset, and did not miss any flaws.
Zhou Xingqi said in his heart that this woman is very good at acting on the spot.
No wonder, even his sister, who has always been arrogant, regards Shen Yu as an opponent.
After the two finished greetings, they quickly got to the point, signed the contract, paid the money, and settled the business.
Shen Yu personally sent Zhou Xingqi to the door, she sighed slightly, "From now on, this is your territory, I will be the master for the last time, and send my big customers." ”
Zhou Xingqi didn't want to say anything, but Shen Yu was so attentive that he had no choice but to speak: "With Mrs. Sheng's skills, it will not be difficult to buy back the old mansion in the future." ”
"I hope there will be a day." Shen Yu said.
The Zhou family is also a big family in Qingshui Town, and it is a ship business, and its strength is no less than that of the Shen family.
It's just that the Zhou family bought a house in Tongcheng a long time ago, and every winter, when Qingshui Town is cold and damp, the Zhou family will go to Tongcheng for the winter.
The Zhou family has a prominent family background, and there is no need to befriend anyone, and they have always been high-minded, and rarely deal with irrelevant people in Qingshui Town.
The old lady of the Zhou family and the old lady Sheng have been sisters for many years, and because of this, the two families have some contacts.
Otherwise, the Dragon Boat Festival is on the dock, and Mrs. Zhou will not be nosy anyway.
The Zhou family has no shortage of houses, and Zhou Xingqi bought the old house of the Sheng family, and the reason for this is very worth finding.
The sales contract has been signed, and Shen Yu can't think about the Zhou family's intentions now, she told the servants to move.
Because of Mr. Qian's order, the Sheng family has now reached the point of exhaustion, and it has only been possible to make up the capital of 120,000 yuan by smashing pots and selling iron, and it has just been able to fill the hole.
You also have to hire a tea master, buy tools for making tea, rent a warehouse, pack, and eat and drink with servants, all of which are money.
At this time, you can save it.
Shen Yu called all the maids over, and she asked Xie Changli to give each of them a dollar.
She said: "Now you have seen the situation of the Sheng family, and you can no longer afford to support a servant." The old lady has a kind heart and has decided to return the deed of sale to you, so you can take the money and go out to fend for yourself. ”
Most of the descendants of the Sheng family were bought, signed a deed of sale, and worked as a cow and a horse for the rest of their lives.
When the master's family is in trouble, most of them will resell the servants, and they can also get a lot of money.
Now that Shen Yu wants to let them go, the servants are a little excited.
After taking the money, the servants knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Then, those who were in the outer courtyard, doing menial work, packed up their things and left.
One hundred and ten servants, in a blink of an eye, there were less than ten people left.
The trees fell and scattered, and the mansion was empty all at once.
Shen Yu looked at the six people standing in front of her in unison, and the corners of her lips had an arc.
Hexiang, Furong, Sheng Yun'er, Laifu, Laibao, and then Xie Changli, these people from Fuyunju didn't leave.
Hexiang came over and grabbed Shen Yu's arm: "I am Miss's dowry maid, and I want to accompany Miss for a lifetime, if you take me away, I won't leave." ”
Sheng Yun'er said: "The slave maid came to the Sheng family voluntarily, and I can learn a lot of things by following the young grandmother, can't I not be paid?" ”
The others also said in unison, "We're going to follow Grandma." ”
Shen Yu smiled and said, "Okay, the outsiders are gone, then the rest are your own people." Since then, we have worked together to make the Sheng family's business bigger and better. ”
There is also a gloomy cloud in Heshoutang, and there are many close grandmothers around the old lady, who have followed the old lady since they were young.
They also wanted to move to the new house with the old lady, so the old lady said with a straight face: "They are all old people, let's go home and retire in peace." I'm an old woman who causes trouble for Ayu, if you follow, won't it be even more messy? ”
The grandmothers lowered their heads and cried, there was no way, the old lady gave a death order, so they had to take the money and go back to their hometown.
There were only two people left in Heshoutang, Mrs. Sheng and Mother Tao, and the old lady said with a wry smile: "When we came, it was the two of us, and now it is the two of us again." ”
The autumn wind is cool and the leaves on the trees are crumbling.
In the blink of an eye, it has been more than a year since Sheng Yanming passed away, and Shen Yu married into the Sheng family.
This time, Shen Yu didn't rent much of a good place, so she rented two yards in the alley where Granny Jiang lived.
The courtyard is very simple, there are only three houses facing it, in the front yard, Shen Yu takes Sheng Jinxu to live in one, Mrs. Sheng and Mother Tao live in one, and Hexiang and Furong live in one.
In the courtyard at the back, it was Xie Changli and them, and Sheng Yun'er went back to her own house.
She joked, "My house is not far away, and I can save food when I go home." ”
Shen Yu knew that she was empathetic, there were women and children living in the three rooms in the front yard, and if she didn't go home, one of the three maids would have to lay on the floor.
Not far away, there is another empty courtyard, which is used as a tea shop for making tea, where all the guys rest.
The big house is now down, the Sheng family's school can no longer go, Sheng Jinxu is like a wild child, running behind Laifu and Laibao's buttocks.
During the meal, he ate half a bowl of rice more than usual, and said happily after eating: "Finally, I don't have to go to school, and I don't have any homework to do." ”
Old Madam Sheng petted Sheng Jinxu's head dotingly, "This leather monkey is really an age that doesn't know how to worry." ”
"But ah, it takes a run to grow fast, and I see that Xu'er has grown a lot taller in the past few days." The old lady turned her head to Shen Yu and said.
Shen Yu looked at Sheng Jinxu and smiled, counting the days, Sheng Yanqing has been missing for twenty days, and even Sheng Jinxu no longer asks about the news of the second uncle every day.
She said in her heart that if he didn't come back, Xu'er would forget about his second uncle.
Then, she was angry and thought that she should forget him and make him regret it.
She supported this family for him, and worked hard to guard this family business, and this suffering was not in vain.
Hexiang served the old lady a meal, "The old lady is right, Young Master Xu said it last night, he will grow up quickly like the little pig next door." ”
Everyone at the table was amused, and the family was eating happily when there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.
